refactor: Replace reqwest library with ureq

This replaces reqwest with the more simplistic ureq library for
performing required HTTP requests.

Reqwest comes with a lot of (tokio-based) machinery for
high-performance requesting that is a bit out of scope for
journaldriver's needs.

This clocks in at 62 (!) fewer dependencies after the change, with
equivalent functionality. Wew.
